Reply: I think the most recent reply from SwisterTwister on February 1, 2017 gives you everything you need. There that use stated " The concern is that the sources are either too close as business announcements, wherever published, or simply trade publications that focus with it. For example, the mentioning of a Kickstarter campaign is unnecessary for our policies. What's best is to focus first with only the best major independent news, as that's the necessary. It's also important to note Drafts are judged by their own merits, and they cannot be inherited any notability from others", in case you find it difficult to view.
To elaborate, the amount of content you have likely outweighs the wealth of sources available to you. The user is recommending that you start again, and write only material that comes directly from major independent news coverage. Try for something sleeker; something that sticks just to the barest and most notable facts in totally neutral language. That allows the AFC reviewers to see whether or not your subject is notable. For further help, you may want to read the following Wikipedia policy on good sources: Wikipedia:Reliable_Sources. Isingness (talk) 16:20, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

My first draft was declined with the following: This draft reads more like an advertisement for the art exhibition than like a neutral Wikipedia article.

So I deleted two sentences "The entrance is free. Everybody is welcome" and paragraph "Edition" which sounds like an advertisement the most. Now it's actually just the translation of the German Wikipedia version: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Videoart_at_Midnight.

I resubmitted the new draft.

If it still sounds like an advertisement, please let me know. I will work again with a native speaker on it. Or please don't hesitate to make corrections.

Two third of the visitor of the platform and also of the web site are english speaking. A lot from US. I think it is relevant and worth to be mentioned also on en.wikipedia

No. What article? This is the only edit you have made from this IP address. I suggest that you register an account so that you will have a consistent history. Robert McClenon (talk) 08:25, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, thank you for reviewing my article! I believe the subject, Kristina Pimenova, meets and exceeds the notability requirement because she has starred in a full length feature film, appeared in many high profile fashion magazines including the cover of Vogue, and has 4 million Facebook and 1.8 million Instagram followers. She is widely considered a legitimate supermodel. She is already included on Wikipedia in many other languages except English. The first article I submitted for review was a brief summary, similar to the Spanish language article. I am happy to expand the article and go into more detail if you believe it will be accepted for publication. I was wondering what additions I should make to help meet the eligibility requirements. Thank you for your help! Sincerely, Christopher Moore Ctmuva2000 (talk) 23:30, 4 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

As has been pointed out to you before, there already is an article Kristina Pimenova in main space (and previously in draft space). You are free to help and improve the existing article. Lyrda (talk) 00:55, 5 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
